Milky Toner Formula w/ Snail Secretion;


Phase A


Phase B

75.7% Distilled water


Phase C

2% Ritamulse SCG/ecomulse (INCI:Glyceryl Stearate & Cetearyl Alcohol & Sodium Stearoyl Lactylate)


Phase D

2% Snail Secretion Extract (INCI: Glycerin & Snail Secretion Filtrate)

1% Tripeptide-29 (collagen peptide FSS)

1% Euxyl K 900 (INCI: Benzyl Alcohol, Ethylhexylglycerin)



Directions;

  • In a sanitized container combine all the ingredients in phase A and set to the side.

  • In a sanitized heat safe container, combine all the ingredients in phase B making sure to mix and dissolve the Sodium Phytate before adding the Allantoin. The Allantoin will not dissolve until we heat it up. 

  • In another sanitized heat safe container, combine all ingredients in phase C.

  • Weigh phase B and write down how much it weighs (include the weight of the beaker) we are going to heat this up to 70°C / 158°F, this will cause some of the water to evaporate. 

  • Cover both phase B and c with foil and place in a water bath. (A water bath is a pan filled with an inch or so of water. Place your pan on your Stove Top on medium heat.)

  • Once both phases are heated to 70°C / 158°F, place Phase B on your scale and replace any water that evaporated. Also make sure the Allantoin is fully dissolved.

  • This is now the time you can pour phase A into phase B and mix. 

  • Place phase A/B back into the water bath making sure the temperature heats back up to 70°C / 158°F before removing both containers from the water bath.

  • Pour phase A/B into phase C and mix with an Immersion Blender.

  • Come back and mix periodically as your toner cools, but don’t mix again once it has  started to thicken.

  • While your milky toner cools you can work on phase D

  • In a sanitized heat safe container combine the Snail Secretion Extract, Tripeptide-29, & Saccharomyces Ferment first. If you are decide to not use any of these ingredients just make sure you have enough watery ingredients to dissolve both the DL panthenol & Niacinamide. After combining your watery ingredients add in the powdered ingredients and mix to dissolve.

  • Then you an add in the Euxyl K 900 or other preservative of choice.

  • Cover and let cool overnight.

  • The next day pour into desired bottle. I used these 2 ounce frosted glass bottles from containerandpackaging.com I also added an orifice reducer which makes it much easier to pour the product onto your hand. Here are some similar bottles on Amazon.
